Join us for a Secular Remembrance – a reflective community gathering to honour those who have lost their lives in conflict, and to recognise the continuing impact of war on people and communities today.
This inclusive event offers space for reflection, gratitude, and hope for peace — without religious observance. The focus will be on community, shared values, and remembrance.
There will be readings, reflections, and music, with an opportunity for anyone who wishes to share a short thought.
Free to attend – all are welcome.
A voluntary collection will be taken for the Royal British Legion.
Stay afterwards for tea, coffee, and conversation.
Let’s come together as a community to remember, reflect, and renew our shared commitment to peace.
